i think you make a good point when you say the poll is NOT to track portfolio strength, but rather to give an idea as to how the sites compare to each other.

This is amazing how everybody give unquestionable reasons and come to different conclusions

IMHO RPI shows exactly portfolio strength, not site one, and averaging gives just a temperature near north pole

I see only one more or less reliable metrics: RP_S_I grouped by portfolio size (for mitigation of size/profitability dependency)

In both cases bucketing may be sufficient to give a picture (e.g. <=25, 100, 500, 1500, >5000

E.g. if I send to SuperDuperStock 600 images, get accepted 150, and sold for $60,
my RPSI of $0.1 will go to <=500 bucket

Good grief, I'm sorry. I voted on right hand side poll for first time, and once I put my numbers in, and saw the results, it was obvious I totally messed up.

My Shutterstock RPI ended up looking lower than it really was, and other sites ended up with RPI's better than they should.

BTW, I misunderstood on two levels. Until I reread Leaf's original post up above, I thought RPI meant number of DL's per image, not number of Dollars per image (which, of course, makes more sense).

If one member's voting effects the poll in any significant way, it would be great if my June vote could be wiped out. ann

you can just vote correctly next month. It is just to give a general idea so it won't make TOO much of a differance and depending on what your values were, if they were TOTALLY bogus they would be discounted anyhow.

Thanks! (The highest wrong number was 10, so I don't know if bogus-radar caught it.)

What about € sites, such as Yay and MostPhoto? Should we convert € to $ before calculating RPI. If not, the results for € sites will be lower than they really are!
